  Tina, passata is sieved tomatoes, its consistency is like thick tomato juice. Most supermarkets sell it in bottles or cartons - hope this helps. Looking forward to making this, not sure about the cabbage mind you, will report back :-)

  This was a wonderful quick and easy supper dish. I omitted the cabbage; also made about 250ml of white sauce which I spooned on top before baking; and added some chopped basi and about 100ml white wine to the tomato sauce. The fresh herbs in the sausage meatballs add wonderful flavour.

  Just enjoyed this very tasty pasta bake, used some fresh pork stuffing mix which had chestnuts & onions in, I cut down the pasta to 200g and used some left over cheese - stilton, brie & cheddar. Made a lovely tomato/cheese sauce. Added the cabbage too. Will be making again.

  I used a 400g pack of Cumberland sausages - take the meat out of the skins and mix with about 1 1/2 oz breadcrumbs. Add a carton of passata and 3 heaped teaspoons of sundried tomato pesto. Mix with 11oz penne pasta, dot with mozza cubes (125g ball) and sprinkle over grated cheddar. I used all Lidl ingredients, which made this dish very economical. It is really simple to make and very tasty, satisfying 2 very fussy young boys!

  This was really tasty and simple. As we have a cabbage-hater in the house, I left it out of the recipe but served it on the side; it was a really delicious combination. I also didn't pick up the right mozzarella in the shop and ended up with only half the amount so next time I make it it will be even more delicious!

  Delicious recipe did not bother with making sausage balls, just used good quality sausage meat and added some fennel seeds and a bit of red wine before adding the tomato passata and simmer for 20 min. Became a family favourite!
